Description

This longer trail connects Sisar Canyon Road to the Sespe River Trail. This is a fairly rigorous trail with a lot of elevation gain. There is water at the beginning and at the end but not for most of the middle. This trail will be very hot during summer so be prepared.

A short side trip from where the trail tops out on Nordoff Ridge will take you to the Topa Topa Bluffs.
